Song: Meri Zindagi Ke Hamsafar, Fenkana Idhar Ik Nazar
Thoda Thoda Pyaar Kar, Kal Ki Kisko Hai Khabar
Film: Shrimati 420 (1956)
Music: O P Nayyar
Lyrics: Jannisar Akhtar
Singer: Geeta Roy
*ing: ?
Geeta frolics in this song. Her ability to modulate the voice is
well known. This song is one more example; where you feel as if
she is controlling notes even after they have been delivered and
are vibrating the way she likes in the air!
Other song, of the film known to me is one of my Rafi favourite
Ye Duniya Tere Dil Ki Tasveer Baba
Ye Do Haath Hain, Teri Taqdir Baba
A typical OPN tune of the genre which people are more familiar
with, through Sone Ki Chidia or Naya Daur songs like 'Raat Bhar
Ka Hai Mehmaa Andhera' or "Ana Hai To Aa' or later in 1960s too,
when he composed 'Jaan Sake To Jaan' which, IMO, comes closest to
this one.
